Musical Futures

The starting point for Musical Futures was to understand the factors affecting the apparent disengagement of young people with sustained musicmaking activities, at a time in their lives when music is not only a passion for many young people, but plays a big part in shaping their social identity.

Following the development of tried-and-tested models, the first set of teacher resource materials were published in 2006 and made available free of charge.

The subscription-based website contains thousands of audio & visual learning resources built for classroom and home use.

The platform features a wide range of resources to support teachers in delivering music from ages 7 – 16 (Key Stages 2 – 4 in the UK).

Education Leeds Artforms created a program to help young people to make choices about the music they engage with beyond the classroom.
